HOTEL AMORE Guide: Big Black Book on Shopping, Museums & Galleries in Milan
If you know where to go, Milan becomes an amazing treasure place
This is part II of the big black book on Milan - this time focused on shopping and culture. Enjoy! I will keep updating these guides with new places, so that they will stay relevant <3
Favorite Places to Shop
Officine Universelle Buly 1803
I love this shop so much! It has different locations in various cities, such as Paris, which I initially felt was a turn-off. However, it’s done so well that I got over it. They have beautiful perfumes, soaps, toothbrushes, and hairbrushes that you can personalize with initials and sometimes even colors. The perfect present. I have already given various items from this shop to friends and family. Also, their packaging is top-notch (seen on the right).
This is such a cute little ceramics atelier. You can come in and see how they paint the plates, they have many different ones. This is a beautiful present as well, for oneself or someone else! You can find their prices on the website. The workshop is open only during the week, closed on the weekend.
In the courtyard of the beautiful Portrait Milan Hotel, which I recommended to you in part I of the Milan guide, you can also find this very well-curated concept store. Definitely on the expensive side, but a great selection of designer pieces and very much worth visiting! From Alaïa, Bottega Veneta to Gentle Monster, and Paris Texas - you can find great brands here, as well as special Asics editions which are a bit less pricey.
